| The Value Chain Approach: | |
| A consideration of the Value Chain approach emphasises the importance of considering and taking into account, all of the wide range of factors that are relevant to individual commodities, processes or topics. If critical factors are not fully considered, there is a strong probability of failure. Take for example, the need to increase the value or quantity of production in a rural area - efforts and resources directed at increased crop or livestock produciton, or reduced losses, are unlikely to be of benefit if poor roads and lack of transport are important constraints and these are not at the same time dealt with. Similarly, those involved in production or processing need to be aware of and consider consumer choice and preference. | |
